China Shipping Container Lines (CSCL) is a container shipping company founded in 1997 in Shanghai , People's Republic of China . The shipping company is part of the China Shipping Group (China Shipping).
She has a modern fleet with over 150 ships and a total capacity of more than 600,000 TEU . With the ships of the CSCL Globe series , the shipping company operates some of the world's largest container freighters. It serves ports all over the world, also more than 40 ports from southern China to northern China in the domestic coastal business.
In September 2014, the shipping company founded with the market attendants United Arab Shipping Company (UASC) and CMA CGM , the consortium Ocean Three . Together they want to achieve greater utilization of their own routes and create synergy effects. Especially in view of the fact that almost all other major shipping companies have formed a consortium, this step is necessary to survive on the market.
